MILLER LITE AND J BALVIN LAUNCH NEW LIMITED-EDITION 'ES JOSE TIME' PINTS

CHICAGO, March 3, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Miller Lite's iconic packaging is getting a neon glow-up, thanks to J Balvin. Drinkers can now start seeing the new limited-edition Miller Lite aluminum pints available nationwide featuring J Balvin's signature lightning bolt, bright electric hues, and whimsical sketches - plus, they come with a chance to hang with Jose himself.

The pint packaging collaboration is part of Miller Lite and J Balvin's partnership, which was announced last year with the rallying cry of "Es Jose Time", a play on the beer's long-standing "Miller Time" concept inspiring drinkers to drop the BS and enjoy a beer as their true selves with their real friends. The partnership kicked off with an exclusive run of J Balvin inspired cans. The cans were so well received, Miller Lite and J Balvin chose to make the design available nationwide with the new limited-edition aluminum pints.

"We had a lot of fun working with J Balvin on this collaboration. He really tapped into his creativity, and we merged it with our classic Miller Lite packaging," said Sofia Colucci, Vice President, Miller Family of Brands. "The goal of the collaboration is to celebrate authenticity and inspire others to celebrate themselves."

As part of the limited-edition pint launch, Miller Lite and J Balvin are giving fans a chance* to enjoy Miller Time through a virtual meet-and-greet with Jose, plus a year's worth of Miller Lite**. Now until 4/15, fans can scan the QR code on packaging to enter for a chance to win* this ultimate Es Jose Time package.  

"I'm so proud of these pints," said Balvin. "Miller Lite already has my favorite beer, and it's amazing to be able to give the brand a J Balvin look. I wanted to take something classic, like a pint of Miller Lite, and make it bright and unexpected with my signature neon colors."

The limited-edition pints will be sold nationally in 15- and 9-packs starting in February until May.

About Miller Brewing Company
Miller Brewing Company was founded in 1855 by Frederick J. Miller when he purchased the Plank Road Brewery in Milwaukee, a city he chose as the best place for a brewery given its access to great water. Miller Lite, the original great-tasting light pilsner beer, (MillerLite.com, Facebook.com/MillerLite, @MillerLite on Twitter, YouTube.com/MillerLite) was introduced nationally in 1975 and is among the top-five selling beers in the United States. The brewery's oldest enduring beer is Miller High Life (MillerHighLife.com, Facebook.com/MillerHighLife, @MillerHighLife on Twitter). Known as the Champagne of Beers, it was introduced in 1903 and still is brewed with the same yeast strain that Miller carried in his pocket from Germany. Miller Genuine Draft (MGD.com, Facebook.com/MillerGenuineDraft, @Miller_Global on Twitter), introduced in 1986, is the original cold-filtered, packaged draft beer. Miller Brewing Company is part of the North America business unit of Molson Coors Beverage Company.
